Barry Lisee

Barry was the best man at my wedding back in 1963 when we were in the Army together at Fort Dix. I lost track of him but met up with him in New York. I am sorry to hear that he has passed and sorry I didn't know abut this until almost 10 years later.

Yes, Barry was truck loads of fun! That´s for sure. Enjoyed working With him at AADA. We supplement or lives ushering for .85 cents an hour 1959... believe it or not. Thanks for all the fun Barry. Best of roommates. Thomas J. Goodrich

Although it had been decades since I'd seen Barry I was indeed saddened to learn of his passing, hoping, as I always did, that our paths would cross again. We were both drafter into the army from Washington DC - we left on the same day for secpmdaru traomomg at Fr/ Dimx remember picking him up in a taxi). He was such an attractive guy -one of the most confident t and "coolest" I've ever known. The last time we met he gave me a ride on his motorcycle - I think it was in the Hamptons. I'm a...

We were roommates when we attended the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in 1959. He was great fun and a good friend and afraid of nothing.

I remember Alex and Gillian when they were
little girls. Barry and I forged a friendship that went beyond the many TV spots we shot together. He was not only a brilliant professional, he was one of my greatest friends. I missed him during our years of mutual absence, and I will miss him forever. Jeane Bice

Barry was my mentor. He took me under his wing and helped thrive in this business . I will always be grateful. I loved his wicked sense of humor and was one of the sweetest men I have ever had the pleasure of knowing.

On a shoot, Barry walked into my motel room only to find me half naked on the floor with the on camera talent. He said nothing and walked out. The next morning he pulled me aside and said, "Neither of us will talk to anyone about this. Understand?" I nodded my head. "But if do ever decide to regale anyone about your little escapade -- it'd better be me." I missed the chance to have dinner with him in LA ten years ago. I deeply regret that.

I can't say that Barry taught me everything I know because we haven't worked together in years. But, he gave me the most solid foundation I could have every hoped for. The most important lesson he ever taught me was to surround myself with great people--then, cut them loose and let them go to work. And, he taught me that lesson without ever saying a word on the topic. When on shoots, I always keep one eye on Barry. If he woke up or quit reading for a minute, my radar clicked on. If he...
